   Just dress in a fashion that's respectable. A Dad doesn't want his "little girl" going out in public looking like a floosy or a whore. Too much cleavage sends the wrong signal to some people. Guys are horribly hormonal during those late teen years. Why should you provide them with something to fuel that? Your parents care and just don't want you to get yourself into a bad situation by dressing too provocatively at too early an age. Why not just wear the uniform?? Sounds like you'd be unique among your peers. Instead of choosing to be mad at your parents, try to put the shoe on the other foot. What would they be thinking that would make them act this way, or react a certain way to a situation? As you blossom into womanhood, don't throw it your Dad's face, either. He doesn't want to see you or think of you as sexy. There's a good possibility that that is part of why you and your Dad aren't communicating.

   Hello…you are a 16 year old girl, this is exactly when every father starts caring about what you wear, it is nothing personal, but he does know what the boys at school will be thinking. Seriously, I feel sorry for the girls whose fathers don't freak out a bit, it is instinctual to try and protect you from the world, especially hormonal boys.

   my mom would do the same thing so i let her have input in the kinds of things i wear, she doesnt get all the say but she doesnt complain either i guess it makes her feel better, i still get low cut tops and things i want but it makes her feel better…try it.

   Sounds like your dad is ashamed of you because your dressing like a slut .So he has nothing to say to you because he knows girls like you ..Your only going to attract the wrong boys who will just use you for sex then dump you is that what you want ?

   Ok. Dads have it tougher with daughters that are becoming grown women. Your dad loves you. He also knows what a 16 year old guy thinks when they see a beautiful young girl dressed may be a little to sexy. You do know that there are bad people out there that get the wrong impression and may want to do bad things to young girls that dress to sexy. May be tone it down a little. Some guys like knowing a girl can look good with out showing too much skin. Give it a try. I am sure your dad would be proud of the fact that you did it for him.

   You should definitely dress comfortable…and confident. No point wearing an outfit that you don't feel confident in. Thing is, people shouldn't judge you by your looks (even though we all know most everyone does), and those who do and make it obvious that they do aren't worth knowing. So what's most important imo is to dress how you really want to, and not for a particular reason or person. so there won't be any room for doubt in your own mind even if others question your dress sense. But well, that's practical/theoretical thinking. Eventually you should still dress how you want to, cos there's no point in others forcing you to wear something you won't want to be caught dead in. Take care now Source(s): own experience and reflection.
